2、Backwashable Filters You Can Even Automate Wherever efficient, reliable, low-micron filtration is required, Hayward Model 2300 backwashable filters provide a new level of efficiency and convenience. Capable of filtration levels not attainable by other backwashing filter designs, Model 2300 filters a

3、re available in either manual or actuated configurations. They are readily duplexed, or even automated for complete hands-off service. Model 2300 filters can be used in a wide variety of applications, either as final low- micron filters or as prefiliers to an ultrafiltration process. Successful appl

4、ications include cooling towers, boiler feedwater, bearing lubrication or cooling, reverse osmosis and distillation, hot and cold water systems in high rise buildings, solvent systems, hydraulic fluids, edible oils and many more. b No Media Disposal Problems b Manual, Electric or Pneumatic Actuation

15、loride, an ingredient used in toothpaste. Prof. Robert H. Crabtree and graduate student Juan Burdenic described the process in the Jan. 19 issue of the journal Science. The process involves heating sodium oxalate, a chemical found in rhubarb, to break down Freon and other chlorofluorocarbons into Th

16、e process was discovered accidentally by Burdenic while he was working on a project for his doctoral theses. The process might be useful in eiiminating stockpiles of Freon but thats not the real problem, according to Mario Molina, a professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and one of three

17、 people who won a Nobel Prize in 1995 for demonstrating that CFCs destroy ozone “It is something useful but of relatively limited applicabilitg Molina told The Association Press. “The main problem is that most CFCs are released into the environment, and once in the environ- ment there is no hope of

18、retrieving them. The major solution is not salt and sodium fluoride.

In the US., industry projects that the nations requirements for HCFC refrigerants wi

Although HCFCs have small ozone de- pletion factors compared to CFCs, not all HCFCs have the same environmental im- pacts. Therefore, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) treats each HCFC individually. HC

43、FCs which have larger ozone depletion factors (R-l41b, R-142b and R-22) than other HCFCs (such as R-123) are scheduled to be phased out in the U.S. before 2030. No new equipment will be manufac- tured starting in the year 2010 using newly produced R-22 (an HCFC); production of R-22 will continue unt

The U.S. need for R-22 will deminish accordingly, and the demand will be satisfied within the phase-down steps in the international agreement in the years tro-Mechanical Oil Level Reaulatoi 1 ) oil separator/oil reservoir 2) electro-mech oil level regulators
